Life's Work/Service/Interests: Lynn Pyper Wallace came into the world with a firm desire to serve others and to leave a cleaner campsite no matter where he went. Unafraid to say it as he saw it, he had courage to face seemingly insurmountable challenges, think outside the box for solutions and work tirelessly until the job was done. He saw the eternal potential in all and encouraged them to dig deeper, work harder and become all that God wants them to be; whether his family, his students, his co-workers, his missionaries, his neighbors or his friends. He was known as "Dad Can Fix It" to his children, "Grandpa Tickle-Toes" to his grandchildren, "Presidente" to his missionaries and "Brother Bow Tie" to fellow temple workers. A consummate friend of scouting, a tireless missionary and temple worker, a dedicated scholar, a gifted engineer, a private pilot, a loving husband, father, grandfather and father-figure to many more. He lived life with purpose and filled it with hard work and dedicated faith. He made a difference for good in the lives of others and will be dearly missed by all who knew him. Lynn Pyper Wallace fulfilled his earthly mission on Thursday, March 6, 2014. He peacefully passed away after a long battle with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Survived By: His wife of more than 54 years, Dorothy Kaye Mangum Wallace; their eight children: Bryan (Cheri), Kenneth (Kathleen), Katherine (Brent), Robert (Sheri), Jennifer (Nathan), Amy (Kevin), Allison (Jon) and Sarah (Spencer); 41 grandchildren; and four great-grandchildren.
Services: Edgemont 8th Ward Chapel, Provo.
